Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) became an important part of public service delivery in Turkey as many of the infrastructures are built via PPP models, even though there is a lack of harmonised and unified PPP legislation. State support is given to project companies in order to reduce the assumed risks and consequently ensure the value for money in PPPs. Even though state supports are expected to be a balancing mechanism so as to realize value for money in the projects, state support is given and paid to project companies so far in Turkey shows that they are used in order to attract the private sector into PPP projects rather than ensuring value for money.
